1
00:00:12,149 --> 00:00:13,844
I was just at Lol B#ibi's...
2
00:00:14,218 --> 00:00:17,085
your Juliet is really worried
about you, mate
3
00:00:17,287 --> 00:00:20,484
She sent milk for you,
specially laced with turmeric
4
00:00:21,191 --> 00:00:24,354
B#ut I'm an untouchable and what
I've touched you won't consume
5
00:00:24,561 --> 00:00:28,588
So I saved you the dilemma and
I drank it myself!
6
00:00:32,369 --> 00:00:33,666
I want to meet her
7
00:00:35,572 --> 00:00:38,370
Oh, so the fire rages here
as well
8
00:00:38,575 --> 00:00:43,774
B#ut how? You aren't a white man,
eunuch or an untouchable.
9
00:00:46,350 --> 00:00:47,442
I want to meet her
10
00:01:41,805 --> 00:01:42,737
What's your name?
11
00:01:45,275 --> 00:01:46,173
Heera
12
00:01:49,546 --> 00:01:50,376
What caste?
13
00:01:53,217 --> 00:01:59,019
People on sale have none. Whoever pays
gets to choose my caste
14
00:02:03,527 --> 00:02:04,289
Where are you from?
15
00:02:05,796 --> 00:02:06,694
Don't know
16
00:02:07,965 --> 00:02:11,662
As a child I was kidnapped, then sold
17
00:02:13,537 --> 00:02:16,199
Since then, it's been one
sale after another
18
00:02:18,509 --> 00:02:19,441
Want to escape?
19
00:02:22,479 --> 00:02:23,741
Escape? With you?
20
00:02:50,140 --> 00:02:51,698
You're badly hurt
21
00:03:01,351 --> 00:03:03,478
Did you drink the milk I sent?
22
00:03:05,622 --> 00:03:06,418
Ya
23
00:03:08,058 --> 00:03:09,320
Lying to me?
24
00:03:17,134 --> 00:03:18,260
Lol B#ibi is looking for you
25
00:03:18,468 --> 00:03:20,299
You'll get into trouble
26
00:03:53,770 --> 00:04:03,873
Like the fish thrashes helplessly in a net...
27
00:04:05,248 --> 00:04:12,984
so do I in your love
28
00:04:13,190 --> 00:04:15,988
At the core of my being...
29
00:04:16,860 --> 00:04:21,661
I feel an insatiable thirst...
30
00:04:23,467 --> 00:04:30,236
and my every nerve is aflame
31
00:04:52,663 --> 00:04:57,657
Oh tell me, lass, who's that
thief of your thoughts?
32
00:05:08,478 --> 00:05:13,211
That philanderer, that scoundrel,
33
00:05:13,583 --> 00:05:18,384
he sins in my head
34
00:05:22,325 --> 00:05:26,853
That philanderer, that scoundrel,
35
00:05:27,064 --> 00:05:31,626
he sins in my head
36
00:05:31,835 --> 00:05:35,999
Locking his eyes with mine...
37
00:05:36,373 --> 00:05:40,969
he steals my sleep and peace of mind
38
00:05:41,545 --> 00:05:47,245
That trickster... oh my rascal lover
39
00:05:47,451 --> 00:05:49,442
Slowly but surely...
40
00:05:49,653 --> 00:05:51,780
she falls in his trap
41
00:05:51,988 --> 00:05:54,081
As the flames begin to lick her...
42
00:05:54,291 --> 00:05:57,749
her veil begins to slip
43
00:05:57,961 --> 00:06:02,762
That trickster
44
00:06:03,633 --> 00:06:08,935
Oh my rascal lover
45
00:06:10,741 --> 00:06:13,107
Oh tell me, lass, who is he?
46
00:06:13,310 --> 00:06:17,269
Who's that thief of your dreams?
47
00:06:20,083 --> 00:06:26,886
He's a soldier, a brave warrior,
who by my word, has stolen my heart
48
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,420
I didn't think at first sight that
he would possess me so
49
00:07:01,625 --> 00:07:03,752
B#ut my heart began to beat aloud...
50
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,588
and I knew I was lost
51
00:07:08,632 --> 00:07:10,827
How I panicked...
52
00:07:11,034 --> 00:07:13,002
and burned with shame...
53
00:07:13,203 --> 00:07:17,503
when he took my hand and
pulled me close
54
00:07:17,707 --> 00:07:19,902
Then clouds of desire gathered,
55
00:07:20,110 --> 00:07:24,604
and burst forth with love's rain.
Oh that trickster
56
00:07:31,454 --> 00:07:33,854
Oh you scoundrel
57
00:08:32,382 --> 00:08:33,474
What's up Davar?
58
00:08:35,118 --> 00:08:36,745
Damn you, Nainsukh!
59
00:08:36,953 --> 00:08:39,581
You cockeyed scoundrel! Can't you find
someone else to bump into?
60
00:08:39,789 --> 00:08:44,351
Who better than you, now that we're
both the same... untouchables
61
00:08:44,628 --> 00:08:46,186
What nonsense, you swine!
62
00:08:46,396 --> 00:08:50,162
Well, you've bitten the bullet
and licked the fat
63
00:08:50,367 --> 00:08:51,698
You've lost your caste, you have
nothing left to lose now
64
00:08:51,902 --> 00:08:54,268
Shut up... that's a lie!
65
00:08:54,471 --> 00:08:57,531
Your "lie" is being manufactured
in a factory in Calcutta
66
00:08:57,741 --> 00:08:58,833
Want to see for yourself?
67
00:09:00,543 --> 00:09:01,373
Do you?
68
00:09:06,283 --> 00:09:12,347
Come, my brothers, come
69
00:09:14,491 --> 00:09:17,892
I won't stay silent any longer,
even if it costs me my life!
70
00:09:18,094 --> 00:09:21,962
It's true about the cartridges.
See for yourself, pig fat and cow fat
71
00:09:34,110 --> 00:09:35,304
May the devil stay away!
72
00:09:41,518 --> 00:09:43,315
Is this your factory?
- Only in name...
73
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,818
the real owner is an Englishman
74
00:09:46,690 --> 00:09:50,922
I am a god-fearing man, brothers,
I respect both Hindus and Muslims
75
00:09:51,127 --> 00:09:54,494
Then why did you use cow
and pig fat?!
76
00:09:55,031 --> 00:09:58,592
The Company would have used
crow fat if that was cheaper
77
00:10:41,077 --> 00:10:41,736
Mangal...?
78
00:10:44,681 --> 00:10:46,376
You lied to me!
79
00:10:48,151 --> 00:10:50,881
I trusted you and you lied me
80
00:10:52,422 --> 00:10:56,017
What're you talking about?
- I saw it with my own eyes
81
00:10:56,593 --> 00:10:59,027
The factory, the cartridge,
the grease...
82
00:10:59,229 --> 00:11:00,890
made with cow and pig fat
83
00:11:01,331 --> 00:11:04,630
Oh God, no...
84
00:11:04,901 --> 00:11:06,391
I'm now an outcaste
85
00:11:07,470 --> 00:11:08,937
You know what it means to
be an outcaste?
86
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,564
My entire community will shun me
87
00:11:12,075 --> 00:11:15,169
They will no longer touch me,
speak to me, eat with me,
88
00:11:15,445 --> 00:11:18,903
or burn my body when I die
89
00:11:20,050 --> 00:11:20,982
For them I am an untouchable.
I no longer exist. I am a nobody
90
00:11:21,184 --> 00:11:22,981
Mangal, listen to me...
- You lied to me!
91
00:11:23,186 --> 00:11:25,586
Listen to me, I didn't know!
They lied to me
92
00:11:25,789 --> 00:11:33,093
You plunder our land, you abuse
our faith and now...
93
00:11:33,563 --> 00:11:37,829
you want our Souls? Sahib... you've
enjoyed a black man's loyalty
94
00:11:38,802 --> 00:11:40,429
Now taste his fury
95
00:11:40,770 --> 00:11:44,968
Mark my words, Captain sahib!
This cartridge will explode
96
00:11:45,241 --> 00:11:47,641
And it will bring to an end
the Company Raj
97
00:11:52,182 --> 00:11:58,018
Take back you pistol, Captain sahib.
We're brothers no more
98
00:12:45,602 --> 00:12:46,899
Don't...
99
00:12:55,912 --> 00:12:59,871
If you are an untouchable then so am I
100
00:13:02,819 --> 00:13:05,617
Mangal, we're all with you
101
00:13:08,992 --> 00:13:11,790
A wrong done unknowingly is not a sin
102
00:13:12,128 --> 00:13:14,255
That's what the scriptures say as well
103
00:13:27,277 --> 00:13:30,041
This cartridge controversy
could spin out of control sir.
104
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,541
We have tried to introduce it twice,
in different regiments without success.
105
00:13:34,918 --> 00:13:36,249
I would recommend caution.
106
00:13:36,419 --> 00:13:40,583
Damn it we can't succumb
to such blind superstition
107
00:13:40,823 --> 00:13:43,849
May seem like superstition
to us sir, but to the sepoys...
108
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,986
it's an extremely sensitive issue.
It strikes them at their core.
109
00:13:47,263 --> 00:13:53,224
Gordon urged his senior officers
to respect the sepoys' feelings...
110
00:13:53,436 --> 00:13:56,405
and withdraw the cartridge.
He was reminded that...
111
00:13:56,606 --> 00:14:03,068
the country was ruled by a Company
which could not suffer losses.
112
00:14:11,788 --> 00:14:16,088
Colonel Mitchell claimed that
his sepoys were loyal...
113
00:14:16,459 --> 00:14:20,088
and would do his bidding.
So it was decided...
114
00:14:20,296 --> 00:14:24,596
that a contingent from B#arrackpore
be sent to B#ehrampore...
115
00:14:24,801 --> 00:14:30,933
a hundred miles away... where they would be
forced to use the cartridge, by example.
116
00:15:15,351 --> 00:15:18,479
Mitchell ordered the sepoys from
both the B#ehrampore...
117
00:15:18,688 --> 00:15:24,490
and B#arrackpore regiments...
to use the cartridge.
118
00:15:26,029 --> 00:15:28,497
First company, first platoon,
119
00:15:28,698 --> 00:15:31,496
step forward and pick up
your rifles and the cartridges
120
00:15:39,042 --> 00:15:40,339
Subedar
121
00:15:44,213 --> 00:15:45,339
What's the matter?
122
00:15:45,548 --> 00:15:48,517
The new cartridge, sir.
The sepoys don't want to use it, sir
123
00:15:48,718 --> 00:15:50,686
Damn it B#akht Khan
124
00:15:51,554 --> 00:15:53,021
Now this is the Army
125
00:15:54,057 --> 00:15:58,517
A soldier uses whatever arms and
ammunition he is asked to use
126
00:16:01,397 --> 00:16:06,357
First company, first platoon,
step forward
127
00:16:10,740 --> 00:16:11,866
Enough!
128
00:16:14,077 --> 00:16:18,878
If you do not move I will blow you
apart with cannon!
129
00:16:24,754 --> 00:16:26,722
Move the artillery forward
130
00:16:46,776 --> 00:16:49,244
You will obey orders!
131
00:16:50,613 --> 00:16:53,081
I will count till ten
132
00:16:56,119 --> 00:16:57,746
One
133
00:16:59,956 --> 00:17:00,581
Two
134
00:17:03,659 --> 00:17:04,591
Three
135
00:17:06,963 --> 00:17:08,430
Four
136
00:17:12,135 --> 00:17:13,102
Five
137
00:17:15,638 --> 00:17:16,605
Six
138
00:17:19,475 --> 00:17:20,442
Seven
139
00:17:24,981 --> 00:17:25,777
Eight
140
00:17:29,152 --> 00:17:30,278
Nine
141
00:17:59,849 --> 00:18:02,977
Fire...
142
00:18:26,709 --> 00:18:29,177
Dismiss the parade sir.
This could turn serious
143
00:18:31,214 --> 00:18:32,340
Do it sir
144
00:18:34,884 --> 00:18:37,011
For god's sake,
do it before it's too late!
145
00:18:38,888 --> 00:18:42,016
Very well, dismiss the parade
146
00:18:44,393 --> 00:18:46,520
Parade... dismiss!
147
00:19:23,432 --> 00:19:26,731
Looting the armoury was wrong
148
00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:29,568
Now we leave them no choice
149
00:19:29,739 --> 00:19:32,708
What choice did we have?
Mitchell was about to blow us up.
150
00:19:32,942 --> 00:19:36,241
That was just a bluff.
He doesn't have the authority
151
00:19:36,479 --> 00:19:37,571
B#ut now he has an excuse
152
00:19:37,780 --> 00:19:41,580
He'll attack us and claim that
he's putting down a mutiny
153
00:19:42,618 --> 00:19:44,415
They're coming to attack our
homes with horses and cannons!
154
00:19:48,291 --> 00:19:51,590
Don't panic. Get ready with
your weapons
155
00:19:51,794 --> 00:19:53,261
Come on
156
00:20:06,375 --> 00:20:09,606
This is your commanding officer
157
00:20:10,846 --> 00:20:14,942
Unless you lay down the arms
which you have looted...
158
00:20:15,651 --> 00:20:19,280
I promise you,
I will give the orders of fire
159
00:20:19,822 --> 00:20:22,290
We don't want bloodshed,
Colonel sahib.
160
00:20:22,858 --> 00:20:26,624
Withdraw your guns and go in peace
161
00:20:27,330 --> 00:20:31,460
Surrender! This is your last chance
162
00:20:31,667 --> 00:20:36,468
We are armed Colonel sahib!
We will fight
163
00:20:37,006 --> 00:20:38,303
B#ut sir, they are our own men
164
00:20:38,507 --> 00:20:41,305
Not any more, can't you see
they are mutineers
165
00:20:41,844 --> 00:20:45,473
Split up into four groups and
let each man carry two torches
166
00:20:47,683 --> 00:20:49,981
Sir but we have no such commands
from the General
167
00:20:50,186 --> 00:20:52,654
Don't you dare interfere with my authority
168
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,878
Please withdraw for now, sir.
Let me talk to them
169
00:21:57,420 --> 00:22:00,218
All right do it, do it!
170
00:22:00,923 --> 00:22:03,050
Listen up
171
00:22:03,759 --> 00:22:06,728
This is corporal B#hola Tiwari speaking
172
00:22:06,929 --> 00:22:11,059
Colonel Mitchell sahib has agreed
to withdraw the cannons
173
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,898
The English soldiers are
returning to their barracks
174
00:22:14,103 --> 00:22:16,401
Please let them through
175
00:22:36,325 --> 00:22:39,761
Fellow soldiers of India...
176
00:22:44,133 --> 00:22:47,102
we have shed our blood
without complaint...
177
00:22:48,304 --> 00:22:54,265
in the service of our foreign masters
178
00:22:55,478 --> 00:22:58,777
For them, we have conquered
kingdom after kingdom
179
00:22:59,648 --> 00:23:02,446
B#ut in return...
180
00:23:03,819 --> 00:23:05,116
what have we got?
181
00:23:05,988 --> 00:23:11,119
Poverty, hunger and humiliation
182
00:23:14,497 --> 00:23:15,464
Mangal, Gordon sahib is here
183
00:23:25,841 --> 00:23:27,968
I'm not here on duty
184
00:23:30,179 --> 00:23:32,306
I've come to speak with Mangal Pandey
185
00:23:34,016 --> 00:23:37,975
Whatever you have to say,
you can say here. We're all friends
186
00:23:50,866 --> 00:23:51,662
Give me a minute
187
00:24:01,377 --> 00:24:04,175
Do you fully understand the implications
of what you're doing?
188
00:24:04,547 --> 00:24:07,516
The Army will never,
never tolerate insubordination
189
00:24:08,050 --> 00:24:13,511
You leave them no choice.
They will have to use force unless...
190
00:24:13,722 --> 00:24:16,850
Unless what? Unless what sahib?
191
00:24:18,060 --> 00:24:20,858
Unless we go down on our knees
and beg for mercy?
192
00:24:21,397 --> 00:24:24,525
Swallow your cartridge and our honour?
193
00:24:25,234 --> 00:24:27,862
Forget who we are and promise to
remain your slaves forever?
194
00:24:30,406 --> 00:24:33,864
For too long our minds have rusted
in the service of foreign masters
195
00:24:34,243 --> 00:24:37,041
All it takes is a little bit of grease to
make us remember who we are
196
00:24:37,780 --> 00:24:43,548
I can understand how you feel.
I too feel angered...
197
00:24:43,752 --> 00:24:48,553
when the Company is unreasonable,
when officers are unfeeling,
198
00:24:48,757 --> 00:24:52,887
when rules are unfair,
but these differences...
199
00:24:53,095 --> 00:24:55,563
must be resolved by reasonable means
200
00:25:01,103 --> 00:25:02,070
This is the difference
201
00:25:05,441 --> 00:25:07,568
Now what are the reasonable means?
202
00:25:18,787 --> 00:25:22,587
News of the chaos at B#ehrampore had
reached the senior officers.
203
00:25:22,791 --> 00:25:24,588
They were unhappy with Mitchell's
handling of the situation.
204
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,127
Mitchell is a fool
205
00:25:28,731 --> 00:25:30,790
This shouldn't have been allowed
to happen.
206
00:25:41,076 --> 00:25:45,069
I've come to beg you to reconsider, sir.
Please withdraw the cartridges.
207
00:25:47,349 --> 00:25:49,977
You don't expect an army to succumb
to a rumour do you, Captain?
208
00:25:50,252 --> 00:25:53,016
This is not simply
a question of idle gossip, sir.
209
00:25:53,188 --> 00:25:56,954
Gordon once again urged that the
cartridges be discontinued.
210
00:25:58,661 --> 00:26:01,289
B#ut the officials paid no heed to him.
211
00:26:01,830 --> 00:26:06,130
Instead, they cast aspersions
on his loyalty, and said...
212
00:26:06,335 --> 00:26:11,637
he could share his bed with a
native, but not his loyalty.
213
00:26:41,704 --> 00:26:46,334
The B#ritish were worried that there were
very few white soldiers in B#arrackpore.
214
00:26:47,042 --> 00:26:51,502
They decided to send for
Queen Victoria's troops from...
215
00:26:51,714 --> 00:26:56,014
Rangoon to deal with the
rebelling sepoys.
216
00:26:56,385 --> 00:26:58,853
And till Rangoon Regiment arrived...
217
00:26:59,054 --> 00:27:00,681
they would stall for time
by ordering an enquiry.
218
00:27:05,227 --> 00:27:10,358
I think we should accept the
Company's offer and return the guns
219
00:27:10,899 --> 00:27:13,197
There will be only an inquiry,
no punishments
220
00:27:13,736 --> 00:27:15,033
Let them save face
221
00:27:15,237 --> 00:27:19,196
B#ut we can win! For every B#ritish soldier,
we are seven sepoys
222
00:27:19,575 --> 00:27:24,035
Even if we win B#ehrampore,
will it end the Company Raj?
223
00:27:24,246 --> 00:27:26,373
So we take defeat without a fight?
224
00:27:26,582 --> 00:27:30,882
Have we learnt nothing from the B#ritish?
Rushing into battle is futile
225
00:27:31,253 --> 00:27:38,386
B#ut if we plan well, we can win.
Our country, our honour... everything
226
00:27:38,594 --> 00:27:40,721
B#ut for now we need time
227
00:27:43,999 --> 00:27:52,566
O' Messiah, lead us into hope...
228
00:27:52,775 --> 00:28:01,740
O' Messiah, lead us into hope
229
00:28:06,155 --> 00:28:12,583
In fervent worship, I seek you...
like a moth seeks the flame
230
00:28:12,795 --> 00:28:21,669
O' most merciful, benevolent God...
hear my plea
231
00:28:21,870 --> 00:28:26,204
Lead me to your light,
show me the way
232
00:28:26,408 --> 00:28:37,114
O' most merciful, benevolent God...
hear my plea
233
00:28:37,319 --> 00:28:59,505
O' Messiah, lead us into hope
234
00:29:21,363 --> 00:29:25,993
My heart is uneasy,
sleep and dreams elude me
235
00:29:28,370 --> 00:29:32,830
I turn and toss as a storm grows
in my breast
236
00:29:37,045 --> 00:29:41,505
What is to happen next?
Where does this story go?
237
00:29:41,750 --> 00:29:45,846
The world waits with bated breath
for the saga to unfold
238
00:29:46,088 --> 00:29:47,020
O' Lord...
239
00:29:48,056 --> 00:29:49,523
O' Messiah...
240
00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:55,189
Why these hurdles, why this trial by fire?
241
00:29:57,399 --> 00:30:05,704
O' most merciful, benevolent God...
hear my plea
242
00:30:17,753 --> 00:30:20,221
Welcome, friends, welcome...
243
00:30:20,923 --> 00:30:24,381
welcome to the noble path
244
00:30:27,262 --> 00:30:31,221
We are emissaries of King Nana Saheb
245
00:30:31,767 --> 00:30:36,067
I am Azimullah and this is Chief of the
Maratha army, Tatya Tope
246
00:30:36,605 --> 00:30:37,902
Please be seated
247
00:30:39,942 --> 00:30:42,240
What brings you to us?
248
00:30:43,779 --> 00:30:48,580
You are aware how the Company has,
through treachery and force...
249
00:30:48,784 --> 00:30:51,252
snatched our kingdoms from us
250
00:30:51,787 --> 00:30:54,756
They took Delhi, Awadh, Jhansi...
251
00:30:55,791 --> 00:30:57,418
Everyone is angry
252
00:30:58,794 --> 00:31:03,094
Nana Saheb has united all the kings...
253
00:31:03,298 --> 00:31:06,426
to fight against the Company
254
00:31:07,970 --> 00:31:12,430
We're here to invite you to join us
255
00:31:20,816 --> 00:31:21,942
Invite us?
256
00:31:23,652 --> 00:31:24,778
What is it, some feast?
257
00:31:26,154 --> 00:31:31,615
Your Rajahs and Nawabs have
gambled away their kingdoms
258
00:31:31,827 --> 00:31:32,953
They've sold out to the company,
my friend
259
00:31:33,662 --> 00:31:37,621
We have seen them grovel and
lay down their arms in front of us
260
00:31:39,067 --> 00:31:40,967
What are they? Nothing
261
00:31:42,671 --> 00:31:43,638
And you?
262
00:31:44,339 --> 00:31:48,969
We are Hindustan.
The Company rules on our strength
263
00:31:50,345 --> 00:31:52,973
The Company's native army
is the only force today...
264
00:31:53,181 --> 00:31:56,617
with the numbers, the weapons
and the training to challenge the Company
265
00:31:57,085 --> 00:31:59,815
And afterwards? Who will rule?
266
00:32:00,188 --> 00:32:00,847
The people
267
00:32:02,090 --> 00:32:07,153
Even in England, the Queen may be
on the coin, but the rule is of the people
268
00:32:09,364 --> 00:32:13,494
The Company has always
won by dividing us...
269
00:32:14,236 --> 00:32:18,832
by making us fight, king against king,
Hindu against Muslim
270
00:32:19,541 --> 00:32:22,840
We have a common enemy... the Company
271
00:32:23,712 --> 00:32:27,341
It's time to unite and fight against it
272
00:32:27,716 --> 00:32:30,184
You want that we spill our blood to
throw the Company out...
273
00:32:30,385 --> 00:32:31,511
and become your slaves again?
274
00:32:32,387 --> 00:32:34,184
No! This is a fight for freedom
275
00:32:34,556 --> 00:32:38,356
Freedom from our past,
freedom for our future
276
00:32:42,064 --> 00:32:47,161
It is the need of the hour
that we bury our differences
277
00:32:49,738 --> 00:32:52,366
We're ready to fight alongside the kings
278
00:32:53,475 --> 00:32:58,037
B#ut this revolution needs
a unifying symbol
279
00:32:58,580 --> 00:33:01,048
And that can only be the
Red Fort in Delhi
280
00:33:01,917 --> 00:33:03,714
If we agree...
281
00:33:03,919 --> 00:33:05,716
to unite under the leadership of the
Mughal Emperor B#ahadur Shah...
282
00:33:06,088 --> 00:33:07,885
then we have a deal
283
00:33:15,097 --> 00:33:17,895
B#ut B#ahadur Shah is 82 years old
284
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:23,231
Yes, he is old and infirm...
but fed up of the Company's excesses
285
00:33:23,772 --> 00:33:25,899
He needs us and we need him
286
00:33:27,275 --> 00:33:29,743
His flag will be our banner
287
00:33:35,784 --> 00:33:44,658
We know the disposition, speed and
strength of the entire Company army
288
00:33:49,965 --> 00:33:53,264
B#arrackpore, B#ehrampore, Raniganj
289
00:33:53,468 --> 00:33:56,437
Allahabad, Kanpur, Lucknow,
Meerut and Delhi
290
00:34:00,308 --> 00:34:02,276
All large garrison towns
291
00:34:03,478 --> 00:34:09,110
Three hundred thousand native sepoys
and only forty thousand B#ritish soldiers
292
00:34:11,653 --> 00:34:15,453
If on the same day, at the same time,
all of us rise...
293
00:34:16,491 --> 00:34:22,794
the Company won't know where to hide
294
00:34:26,001 --> 00:34:28,367
In a single day, we disarm
every B#ritish soldier
295
00:34:29,337 --> 00:34:32,704
And the Company Raj comes to an end!
296
00:34:40,182 --> 00:34:41,809
Praise be to Allah!
297
00:34:44,186 --> 00:34:47,815
Astrology predicts that the Company Raj
will end in a hundred years
298
00:34:48,690 --> 00:34:52,717
And a hundred years, ends this May
299
00:34:53,028 --> 00:34:54,655
Then let's fix the date
300
00:34:55,697 --> 00:34:56,925
31st May
301
00:34:58,533 --> 00:35:02,936
On that day, all of India will rise
and become free
302
00:35:03,705 --> 00:35:06,606
It's Holi!
303
00:35:09,211 --> 00:35:12,510
Holi is here, an explosion of colour
304
00:35:12,714 --> 00:35:16,013
The bells ring out and drumbeats roll
305
00:35:16,218 --> 00:35:19,346
The streets dance in drunken abandon
306
00:35:19,554 --> 00:35:23,183
It's the season of joy, my love
307
00:35:51,253 --> 00:35:53,221
You wretches! Where are you off to?
308
00:35:59,594 --> 00:36:04,395
Look, Holi is here in a riot of colours,
painting one and all alike
309
00:36:04,599 --> 00:36:09,400
Sorrows are lost, in new ecstasies
of blues, greens and reds
310
00:36:09,604 --> 00:36:14,064
Look, Holi is here in a riot of colours,
painting one and all alike
311
00:36:14,276 --> 00:36:19,077
Sorrows are lost, in new ecstasies
of blues, greens and reds
312
00:36:19,281 --> 00:36:23,741
I am going to be coloured anew...
313
00:36:23,952 --> 00:36:27,080
this year the hues look richer
314
00:36:27,289 --> 00:36:32,249
No one can stop us now,
no one can hold us back...
315
00:36:32,627 --> 00:36:37,758
No matter what... we are ready!
316
00:36:56,985 --> 00:37:01,786
Look my love, I'm drenched in colours
317
00:37:01,990 --> 00:37:06,450
And a little drunk, you sway
so mesmerisingly
318
00:37:06,661 --> 00:37:10,791
How can I not let go and
enjoy this moment...
319
00:37:11,499 --> 00:37:16,801
as you seduce me with your eyes?
- No one can stop us now
320
00:37:17,005 --> 00:37:23,535
No one can hold us back...
no matter what... we are ready!
321
00:37:34,522 --> 00:37:37,980
With a fistful of colours Lord Krishna
sneaks up on his lover
322
00:37:38,193 --> 00:37:42,220
B#ut Radha is quick as she is naughty
and gives it back as good as she gets
323
00:37:49,037 --> 00:37:52,495
With a fistful of colours Lord Krishna
sneaks up on his lover
324
00:37:52,707 --> 00:37:56,165
B#ut Radha is quick as she is naughty
and gives it back as good as she gets
325
00:37:56,378 --> 00:38:01,509
As the lovers unite and the colours mix
Radha and Krishna become one
326
00:38:01,716 --> 00:38:06,585
Which is Radha, which is Krishna
who can tell them apart?
327
00:38:17,399 --> 00:38:21,859
Under a blanket of colours
our eyes lock, our hands touch
328
00:38:22,070 --> 00:38:26,530
We come closer and something
deep within me stirs
329
00:38:26,741 --> 00:38:31,201
This spell of love, this joyous abandon,
can you ever escape it?
330
00:38:31,413 --> 00:38:34,712
Don't ask that of me anymore
331
00:38:34,916 --> 00:38:39,876
No one can stop us now,
no can hold us back...
332
00:38:40,088 --> 00:38:45,287
no matter what... we are ready!
333
00:39:47,989 --> 00:39:54,292
The insolent behavior of the sepoys
Had the B#ritish officials worried.
334
00:39:54,496 --> 00:39:58,296
Just then, General Anson
received the news...
335
00:39:58,833 --> 00:40:02,030
that Rangoon Regiment was afloat
and would reach on...
336
00:40:02,837 --> 00:40:05,635
April 1st. Anson decided that when
the Queen's troops arrived...
337
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,903
the rebel soldiers would be disarmed
and their leaders hanged.
338
00:40:11,179 --> 00:40:17,379
It would be such a lesson that no one
would dare rise for a hundred years.
339
00:40:31,032 --> 00:40:34,126
Mangal, they're going to kill you
340
00:40:34,702 --> 00:40:36,727
They've sent for the Rangoon Regiment
341
00:40:37,038 --> 00:40:39,336
What... Rangoon Regiment? When?
342
00:40:39,541 --> 00:40:40,735
1st April
343
00:40:42,043 --> 00:40:43,169
How do you know?
344
00:40:44,212 --> 00:40:45,839
Last night I was with Hewson
345
00:40:46,881 --> 00:40:48,508
He blurts out a lot when he is drunk.
346
00:40:48,716 --> 00:40:50,684
He said, once the Regiment gets here...
347
00:40:50,885 --> 00:40:56,187
they'll disarm the native sepoys
and hang their leaders
348
00:40:56,891 --> 00:41:00,691
I'm scared, Mangal! Save yourself...
349
00:41:00,895 --> 00:41:05,264
and save me... from this hell
350
00:41:07,402 --> 00:41:09,427
Mangal, I beg you
351
00:41:10,905 --> 00:41:12,532
Let's run away...
352
00:41:13,408 --> 00:41:14,432
anywhere
353
00:41:15,910 --> 00:41:16,638
No
354
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,321
Heera, I cannot run away
355
00:41:45,106 --> 00:41:47,574
The situation has changed.
We can't wait till May
356
00:41:47,775 --> 00:41:51,575
B#ut the kings need time to prepare.
- Time is what we don't have
357
00:41:51,779 --> 00:41:53,576
One wrong move can ruin everything
358
00:41:53,781 --> 00:41:55,408
Once the sepoys are disarmed,
who will do the fighting?
359
00:41:55,617 --> 00:41:57,244
Your Nana Saheb? Or B#ahadur Shah?
360
00:41:58,286 --> 00:41:59,253
There's one way
361
00:42:00,788 --> 00:42:04,417
We've received orders to march from
B#ehrampore on 21st March...
362
00:42:04,626 --> 00:42:06,093
to reach B#arrackpore on 30th March.
363
00:42:06,294 --> 00:42:09,092
Rangoon Regiment arrives on 1st April
364
00:42:09,297 --> 00:42:11,094
That gives us two days
365
00:42:12,300 --> 00:42:17,101
The moment we reach B#arrackpore,
we'll take over the cantonment
366
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:21,439
Then, before the Rangoon Regiment arrives,
we march to Calcutta.
367
00:42:21,643 --> 00:42:24,942
There we capture Fort William
and hold on to it...
368
00:42:25,313 --> 00:42:28,282
until the rebellion spreads
throughout the country
369
00:42:36,991 --> 00:42:39,960
Done with selling your milk
to that white bitch?
370
00:42:40,161 --> 00:42:41,788
B#etter that, than us starving
371
00:42:43,865 --> 00:42:45,298
You bitch! Talking back to me?
372
00:42:47,168 --> 00:42:51,798
Now their days are numbered!
- Yeah, in your dreams!
373
00:42:52,173 --> 00:42:53,970
Wait and see, their time's up!
374
00:42:57,745 --> 00:42:59,804
B#y the next full-moon... slaughter!
375
00:43:00,348 --> 00:43:02,816
Where...? In B#arrackpore?
376
00:43:03,017 --> 00:43:04,985
Everywhere. All across India!
377
00:43:16,364 --> 00:43:24,169
Memsaab, danger! Danger Memsaab!
378
00:43:24,539 --> 00:43:25,335
Wait
379
00:43:29,544 --> 00:43:31,341
What's going on, what danger?
380
00:43:31,879 --> 00:43:35,337
B#aba is like my own son.
I don't want anything to happen to him
381
00:43:41,789 --> 00:43:46,351
Memsaab, you must leave!
- Why what's going on?
382
00:43:49,897 --> 00:43:52,525
The sepoys say Company Raj will end
383
00:43:52,734 --> 00:43:54,361
They've been saying that for a
hundred years. It won't happen
384
00:43:54,569 --> 00:43:57,037
No! This time it's for real
385
00:43:57,572 --> 00:44:00,700
Please take B#aba and go back to
Englistan. Please
386
00:44:04,245 --> 00:44:06,873
You've taken a great risk, Kamla.
387
00:44:30,438 --> 00:44:35,068
Traitor! You dare to mutineer?
Now see what we do to your wife and child!
388
00:44:36,277 --> 00:44:39,075
What date have you devils set for this?
389
00:44:48,556 --> 00:44:54,153
30th March
390
00:44:56,564 --> 00:44:57,462
Send dispatches immediately
391
00:44:57,665 --> 00:44:59,189
Stop the B#ehrampore Regiment
from reaching here.
392
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:00,367
Contact Rangoon
393
00:45:00,768 --> 00:45:03,259
The Queen's Regiment must get here
before the 30th.
394
00:45:03,771 --> 00:45:08,105
Remember... your wife and child!
395
00:45:11,979 --> 00:45:16,780
On learning the rebels' plans,
General Hearsey ordered that...
396
00:45:16,984 --> 00:45:20,943
The Rangoon Regiment must reach
B#arrackpore before 30th March.
397
00:45:21,989 --> 00:45:24,617
Meanwhile, the B#ehrampore Regiment
must be stopped en route...
398
00:45:24,992 --> 00:45:28,792
and prevented from reaching B#arrackpore.
399
00:45:36,003 --> 00:45:36,628
Halt!
400
00:45:44,011 --> 00:45:47,139
Ah, B#akht Khan! - Why this halt, sir?
401
00:45:47,381 --> 00:45:49,645
A storm is brewing.
We stay here till it passes.
402
00:45:49,851 --> 00:45:54,481
B#ut the Sepoys are tired... eager to reach
B#arrackpore. They need to rest
403
00:45:56,357 --> 00:45:59,656
Really? Well I'm afraid
they must rest here
404
00:46:01,863 --> 00:46:03,160
I will go and explain it to them
405
00:46:05,533 --> 00:46:07,160
That won't be necessary
406
00:46:48,910 --> 00:46:49,877
What's up?
407
00:46:51,579 --> 00:46:52,375
What happened?
408
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,048
White soldiers, a whole army!
409
00:46:55,249 --> 00:46:56,546
What? Where?
410
00:46:56,751 --> 00:46:58,548
On the riverbank, I saw it myself
411
00:47:00,087 --> 00:47:01,054
Are you out of your mind?!
412
00:47:01,255 --> 00:47:03,223
B#elieve me, I swear by my mother!
413
00:47:04,258 --> 00:47:05,054
On the banks
414
00:47:10,097 --> 00:47:12,725
Come on... the B#rits are here!
415
00:47:12,934 --> 00:47:14,060
The Rangoon Regiment has arrived.
416
00:47:14,268 --> 00:47:15,895
Everyone to the Parade Ground. Quick!
417
00:47:30,284 --> 00:47:32,252
Sound the bugle! Call everyone, quick!
418
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:34,747
This is not the time... - B#low the bugle
419
00:47:36,290 --> 00:47:38,758
Mangal! What's the matter?
420
00:47:49,637 --> 00:47:50,934
What's wrong with the Sergeant-Major?
421
00:47:51,172 --> 00:47:54,266
Don't go out. It is bad luck to spill milk
422
00:47:54,475 --> 00:47:55,772
It's an ill omen!
Something terrible is going to happen!
423
00:47:56,477 --> 00:47:57,944
Please don't go
424
00:47:59,180 --> 00:48:02,274
Don't worry, I'll be fine
425
00:48:11,158 --> 00:48:15,959
Come on! The time has come!
Time to fight, time to be free!
426
00:48:16,197 --> 00:48:20,293
What happened Mangal, what's wrong?
- Get your weapons. The B#rits are here
427
00:48:20,534 --> 00:48:23,970
The Rangoon Regiment has landed!
- B#ut today isn't 1st April
428
00:48:24,171 --> 00:48:29,131
They came early. We have to act fast.
Go get your guns! Quick!
429
00:48:29,343 --> 00:48:31,311
To arms!
430
00:48:31,512 --> 00:48:34,481
B#ut B#akht Khan's men aren't here yet.
- We need to wait for them
431
00:48:34,682 --> 00:48:37,810
We can't wait. We must attack,
432
00:48:38,019 --> 00:48:41,819
and capture the cantonment before
the Rangoon Regiment moves in
433
00:48:42,023 --> 00:48:44,491
Stop. Don't. You'll get us killed!
434
00:48:44,692 --> 00:48:47,991
There's no time! Come on, move! Move!
435
00:48:49,096 --> 00:48:50,996
No no, wait! He's gone mad!
436
00:48:51,699 --> 00:48:54,327
Mangal your impatience
will get us killed!
437
00:48:54,535 --> 00:48:56,503
And this hesitation will
kill the rebellion!
438
00:48:56,704 --> 00:48:58,501
B#ut Mangal, we are not ready yet
439
00:48:58,706 --> 00:49:00,003
It's now or never!
440
00:49:02,710 --> 00:49:04,337
What's wrong with you guys?
441
00:49:05,713 --> 00:49:09,342
Don't you see, the moment we have
all been waiting for is here!
442
00:49:10,551 --> 00:49:14,681
It's time to honour your pledge,
it's time to do or die
443
00:49:15,389 --> 00:49:17,857
Pick up your guns and fight
444
00:49:18,059 --> 00:49:19,686
Fight for your freedom
445
00:49:20,394 --> 00:49:22,692
For once, fight for yourselves
446
00:49:22,897 --> 00:49:23,693
Fight!
447
00:49:23,898 --> 00:49:24,865
Come on!
448
00:49:39,413 --> 00:49:40,539
What's going on here!
449
00:49:41,749 --> 00:49:42,716
Who sounded the bugle?
450
00:49:54,762 --> 00:49:55,888
Mangal, stop
451
00:50:01,635 --> 00:50:02,567
Mangal... no...
452
00:50:08,609 --> 00:50:10,076
What the hell do you
think you're doing?
453
00:50:10,444 --> 00:50:14,073
A handful of sepoys is no match
for the Rangoon Regiment
454
00:50:14,281 --> 00:50:15,248
That we shall see
455
00:50:17,618 --> 00:50:20,917
Then you leave me no choice
456
00:50:51,485 --> 00:50:52,452
Get the General
457
00:50:57,491 --> 00:50:58,788
Sir, it's begun
458
00:52:31,085 --> 00:52:32,382
The B#ritish Army
459
00:52:32,753 --> 00:52:33,720
Rangoon Regiment
460
00:53:13,294 --> 00:53:14,921
You are completely outnumbered
461
00:53:15,796 --> 00:53:19,425
Drop your guns and surrender, or die
462
00:53:22,503 --> 00:53:23,492
It's too late, Mangal. It's all over
463
00:53:23,971 --> 00:53:27,600
All of India is looking at us
If we surrender now...
464
00:53:27,808 --> 00:53:31,266
the rebellion dies before it is born.
We can't let that happen
465
00:53:31,478 --> 00:53:32,604
I won't let that happen
466
00:53:35,482 --> 00:53:37,609
They are far too many,
it's no use. Let's run
467
00:53:37,818 --> 00:53:40,286
No... no...! - We can't win
468
00:53:40,487 --> 00:53:43,285
We will win, even if it takes
a hundred years
469
00:53:44,725 --> 00:53:47,626
Let's run Mangal... please,
or we'll all die!
470
00:53:56,837 --> 00:53:57,963
Go
471
00:54:00,174 --> 00:54:01,300
Spread the word
472
00:54:02,009 --> 00:54:03,806
It has begun
473
00:54:04,745 --> 00:54:06,645
Mangal the rebellion needs you!
474
00:54:08,415 --> 00:54:10,315
The rebellion needs blood
475
00:54:10,851 --> 00:54:12,318
Let it be mine
476
00:54:31,205 --> 00:54:34,333
ATTACK!
477
00:54:39,213 --> 00:54:40,180
Stop
478
00:54:40,381 --> 00:54:41,348
Don't fire
479
00:54:41,582 --> 00:54:42,173
Hold your fire
480
00:54:45,386 --> 00:54:46,512
I want him alive
481
00:55:47,614 --> 00:55:50,913
To the hospital! Quick! He mustn't die
482
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:24,281
Awaken, arise and be blessed.
May all be blessed
483
00:56:24,952 --> 00:56:29,946
Awaken, arise and be blessed.
May all be blessed
484
00:56:30,524 --> 00:56:35,791
The towns are awake, the homes
are abuzz, every village is astir
485
00:56:35,996 --> 00:56:41,628
Valleys awaken and so do their trees,
look, shadows are coming to life!
486
00:56:47,508 --> 00:56:51,308
Nana Saheb, B#arrackpore has risen
487
00:56:51,678 --> 00:56:54,306
Soon the fire will spread all across
488
00:56:54,681 --> 00:56:56,649
B#ut Tatya...
489
00:56:56,917 --> 00:57:02,480
Make up your mind Nana Saheb.
Seize the moment or perish
490
00:57:02,689 --> 00:57:08,150
No hand can stem the fire that
rages in people's hearts
491
00:57:08,362 --> 00:57:13,493
Eyes ablaze and spirits aflame,
no head will ever bow again
492
00:57:13,734 --> 00:57:19,172
A changed people fill the streets,
marching into death's embrace
493
00:57:21,208 --> 00:57:24,006
Greetings, Queen Lakshmibai.
- Welcome, Tatya
494
00:57:26,613 --> 00:57:30,014
The time has come,
earlier than we expected
495
00:57:30,217 --> 00:57:34,517
Good. Just what
I've been waiting to hear
496
00:57:34,721 --> 00:57:39,852
Rising like a storm unstoppable,
stirring the land in it's wake
497
00:57:40,060 --> 00:57:45,362
They swear to crush and finally
end this dark age of tyranny
498
00:57:48,902 --> 00:57:54,033
I'm an Emperor only in name.
I am weak, what can I do?
499
00:57:54,241 --> 00:57:56,368
A giant wave is rising, Your Majesty
500
00:57:57,744 --> 00:58:01,544
If we don't swim with it, we'll drown
501
00:58:02,249 --> 00:58:12,716
Awaken, arise and be blessed.
May all be blessed
502
00:58:28,108 --> 00:58:29,405
He will live
503
00:58:42,956 --> 00:58:45,925
There is still hope.
I have spoken to them
504
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,588
If you tender a public apology,
they will let you live
505
00:58:54,635 --> 00:59:00,267
Just say that it was a mistake
and you're sorry that's all
506
00:59:00,474 --> 00:59:03,272
Or they will hang you
507
00:59:05,979 --> 00:59:12,111
I am not sorry for my actions
and I am not scared to die
508
00:59:13,820 --> 00:59:16,618
So they cannot threaten me
or forgive me
509
00:59:22,729 --> 00:59:23,457
Mangal...
510
00:59:25,165 --> 00:59:27,292
I don't want you to die
511
00:59:28,168 --> 00:59:36,633
This is my fault, I let you do this,
I passed on a lie
512
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:43,810
Gordon sahib, you did what you
could and I did what I had to
513
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:47,987
My blood is not on your hands
514
00:59:51,858 --> 01:00:00,323
I've come to realise that what
I did and what I must do...
515
01:00:01,201 --> 01:00:03,829
has nothing to do with
bitting a bullet,
516
01:00:04,037 --> 01:00:07,837
and nothing to do with the
terror of becoming an outcaste
517
01:00:10,210 --> 01:00:15,341
I... believed that Nainsukh was
born an untouchable
518
01:00:23,223 --> 01:00:27,353
Now... we are all untouchables
in our own land
519
01:00:32,232 --> 01:00:39,536
Gordon sahib, our fight is no longer
against grease on a cartridge,
520
01:00:42,075 --> 01:00:47,035
it is for our dignity, our freedom,
521
01:00:48,415 --> 01:00:51,043
our right to hold our head
as high as the next man
522
01:00:56,089 --> 01:01:02,392
You, the lie, the grease...
523
01:01:05,766 --> 01:01:12,899
I'd bite the bullet a hundred times
if it would give my freedom
524
01:01:15,942 --> 01:01:24,748
Mangal for god's sake we have
to stop this thing,
525
01:01:24,951 --> 01:01:27,579
or there will be terrible bloodshed
526
01:01:31,792 --> 01:01:33,259
You don't understand
527
01:01:35,796 --> 01:01:37,423
India is rising,
528
01:01:38,465 --> 01:01:40,262
nothing and nobody can stop it,
529
01:01:41,802 --> 01:01:46,762
not even my life
530
01:01:58,218 --> 01:01:59,276
Mangal Pandey...
531
01:02:00,487 --> 01:02:03,456
did you on the 29th of March
incite the other sepoys...
532
01:02:03,657 --> 01:02:07,115
to rebel against the Company?
533
01:02:09,996 --> 01:02:12,294
Who were the others involved
in this conspiracy?
534
01:02:17,904 --> 01:02:20,634
On that morning, did you imbibe
any intoxicating drinks?
535
01:02:20,841 --> 01:02:22,138
This one called bhang, for instance?
536
01:02:25,512 --> 01:02:29,642
Let the record show that the
accused does not deny this
537
01:02:30,684 --> 01:02:35,018
It's obvious that the accused
has no interest whatsoever...
538
01:02:35,088 --> 01:02:36,817
in the proceedings
of this court martial. Therefore...
539
01:02:37,724 --> 01:02:40,557
we shall have to rely upon
testimonies of the eye witnesses...
540
01:02:40,727 --> 01:02:45,130
and the officers attacked and wounded
by the accused
541
01:02:58,545 --> 01:03:02,276
You have known Mangal Pandey
for the past seven years?
542
01:03:03,183 --> 01:03:05,981
I have known him sir,
as a brave soldier and a loyal friend
543
01:03:06,820 --> 01:03:08,845
One of the finest sepoys
to serve under my command
544
01:03:09,122 --> 01:03:13,081
Is it true that on the 29th of March
he attacked and injured you?
545
01:03:13,827 --> 01:03:16,819
I cannot deny what happened sir,
but I would like you to look...
546
01:03:16,963 --> 01:03:20,865
at the circumstances that led to
his behaviour, - Answer in yes or no...
547
01:03:21,935 --> 01:03:24,870
Yes but the cartridge controversy
and the subsequent events...
548
01:03:24,971 --> 01:03:26,370
Yes or no Captain
549
01:03:26,740 --> 01:03:28,867
Just knowing
what happened is not enough
550
01:03:28,975 --> 01:03:30,442
You have to understand
why it happened
551
01:03:30,544 --> 01:03:31,340
Yes or no!
552
01:03:31,511 --> 01:03:32,307
Yes
553
01:03:33,213 --> 01:03:36,444
Is it not also true that
he subsequently murdered...
554
01:03:36,583 --> 01:03:39,051
two of your fellow officers
and injured four others?
555
01:03:39,219 --> 01:03:40,049
Yes
556
01:03:40,387 --> 01:03:41,479
That will be all, Captain
557
01:03:41,588 --> 01:03:43,146
No, that will not be all!
558
01:03:45,592 --> 01:03:47,560
You will hear me speak damn it!
559
01:03:50,063 --> 01:03:53,123
Has this company become so blinded
by arrogance and greed that...
560
01:03:53,233 --> 01:03:55,394
it cannot see the danger
that stares it in the face?
561
01:03:56,570 --> 01:03:59,403
We stand surrounded
by our own army
562
01:04:00,073 --> 01:04:04,237
300,000 armed native soldiers
so disillusioned by our command,
563
01:04:04,377 --> 01:04:07,904
that they are on the verge of mutiny.
And what do we do to pacify them?
564
01:04:08,081 --> 01:04:09,912
We stoke the fire
of their indignation...
565
01:04:10,083 --> 01:04:12,984
by laughing at their concerns
or suppressing them with brutality
566
01:04:13,653 --> 01:04:17,145
B#ut mark my words, if you hang
this man Mangal Pandey...
567
01:04:17,290 --> 01:04:20,418
there will be rebellion,
bloody rebellion...
568
01:04:20,727 --> 01:04:23,093
that will sweep
through this land like wildfire
569
01:04:23,230 --> 01:04:25,926
A rebellion that will lead
to the end of this Company Raj
570
01:04:26,132 --> 01:04:27,599
Captain, enough!
571
01:04:27,968 --> 01:04:31,927
Gordon tried his best to save Mangal.
572
01:04:32,138 --> 01:04:38,270
He warned that if Mangal Pandey was
hanged there would be a bloody rebellion...
573
01:04:38,478 --> 01:04:41,106
That would put to an end the Company Raj.
574
01:04:41,982 --> 01:04:45,611
B#ut even this warning fell on deaf ears.
575
01:05:03,336 --> 01:05:05,804
They failed to hang him this morning
576
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,468
They have called for a
hangman from Calcutta
577
01:05:10,410 --> 01:05:13,641
They will hang him in public tomorrow,
578
01:05:14,014 --> 01:05:15,982
and make a spectacle of his death
579
01:07:37,657 --> 01:07:42,617
Hearken o' people...
580
01:07:43,329 --> 01:07:44,455
the drum sounds the call
581
01:07:44,664 --> 01:07:45,961
Now awake and arise
582
01:07:46,166 --> 01:07:47,463
From your sleep of ages
583
01:07:52,672 --> 01:08:00,306
Awaken, now awaken
584
01:08:01,181 --> 01:08:05,140
The Earth comes alive
as dawn heralds a new day
585
01:08:05,351 --> 01:08:09,151
Rivers sparkle with new life
and hope rises in oceans anew
586
01:08:18,865 --> 01:08:50,051
Awaken, now awaken
587
01:08:50,363 --> 01:08:54,197
Pay heed to this moment in Time,
588
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:58,029
though your eyes
disbelieve what they see
589
01:08:58,238 --> 01:09:02,038
A man is leaving this world of man,
590
01:09:02,242 --> 01:09:06,042
see his head held proud and high
591
01:09:06,246 --> 01:09:09,704
Oh how fortunate is the mother,
592
01:09:09,916 --> 01:09:14,046
who gave birth to such a son
593
01:09:14,254 --> 01:09:18,384
So fearless, he shall never die,
594
01:09:18,591 --> 01:09:21,560
even if life is taken from him
595
01:09:51,958 --> 01:09:54,518
With such dignity does
this rebel take leave
596
01:09:54,727 --> 01:09:57,252
every head bows in respect
597
01:09:57,463 --> 01:10:02,662
On his lips the cry of freedom,
his heart's desire for all to see
598
01:10:02,869 --> 01:10:08,398
His eyes see beyond the present,
the dream of his homeland free
599
01:10:08,608 --> 01:10:19,610
You can kill a man but not his dream!
600
01:10:25,658 --> 01:10:27,956
ATTACK!
601
01:10:50,183 --> 01:10:53,311
ATTACK!
602
01:11:35,061 --> 01:11:39,191
And so began the bloodiest
rebellion in human history
603
01:11:40,066 --> 01:11:43,035
The B#ritish called it a Sepoy Mutiny
604
01:11:43,236 --> 01:11:47,866
B#ut for the Indians it was the
first war of independence
605
01:11:48,908 --> 01:11:53,538
An officer by the name
Captain William Gordon,
606
01:11:53,746 --> 01:11:55,543
was recorded as having
joined the rebel forces...
607
01:11:55,915 --> 01:11:57,382
and fought against the Company Raj
608
01:11:58,584 --> 01:12:01,212
The rebellion was finally
put down after a year...
609
01:12:01,421 --> 01:12:04,390
but it destroyed the East India Company
610
01:12:04,624 --> 01:12:10,722
And the B#ritish Crown took over
the governance of India
611
01:12:12,498 --> 01:12:16,229
Mangal Pandey in his death
became a hero, a legend...
612
01:12:16,936 --> 01:12:24,069
who inspired a nation to
fight for freedom
613
01:12:40,126 --> 01:12:45,758
The dream of freedom ignited by
Mangal finally came true 90 years later...
614
01:12:46,466 --> 01:12:52,302
on 15th August 1947,
when India became free.
